Non-intrusive detection systems have the potential to characterise materials through various transparent glass and plastic containers. Food and drink adulteration is increasingly problematic, representing a serious health risk as well as an economic issue. This is of particular concern for alcoholic spirits such as Scotch whisky which are often targeted for fraudulent activity. We have developed a Raman system with a novel geometry of excitation and collection, exploiting the beam propagation from an axicon lens resulting in an annular beam that transforms to a Bessel illumination within the sample. This facilitates the efficient acquisition of Raman signals from the alcoholic spirit contained inside the bottle, while avoiding the collection of auto-fluorescence signals generated by the bottle wall. Therefore, this technique provides a way of non-destructive and non-contact detection to precisely analyse the contents without the requirement to open the bottle.

While mid-infrared radiation can be used to identify and quantify numerous chemical species, contemporary broadband mid-IR spectroscopic systems are often hindered by large footprints, moving parts and high power consumption. In this work, we demonst
rate multiheterodyne spectroscopy using interband cascade lasers, which combines broadband spectral coverage with high spectral resolution and energy-efficient operation. The lasers generate up to 30 mW of continuous wave optical power while consuming less than 0.5 W of electrical power. A computational phase and timing correction algorithm is used to obtain kHz linewidths of the multiheterodyne beat notes and up to 30 dB improvement in signal-to-noise ratio. The versatility of the multiheterodyne technique is demonstrated by performing both rapidly swept absorption and dispersion spectroscopic assessments of low-pressure ethylene (C$_2$H$_4$) acquired by extracting a single beat note from the multiheterodyne signal, as well as broadband multiheterodyne spectroscopy of methane (CH$_4$) acquired with all available beat notes with microsecond temporal resolution and an instantaneous optical bandwidth of 240 GHz. The technology shows excellent potential for portable and high-resolution solid state spectroscopic chemical sensors operating in the mid-infrared.
Here we design, construct, and characterize a compact Raman-spectroscopy-based sensor that measures the concentration of a water-methanol mixture. The sensor measures the concentration with an accuracy of 0.5% and a precision of 0.2% with a 1 second
measuring time. With longer measurement times, the precision reaches as low as 0.006%. We characterize the long-term stability of the instrument over an 11-day period of constant measurement, and confirm that systematic drifts are on the level of 0.02%. We describe methods to improve the sensor performance, providing a path towards accurate, precise, and reliable concentration measurements in harsh environments. This sensor should be adaptable to other water-alcohol mixtures, or other small-molecule liquid mixtures.
Shanghai Laser Electron Gamma Source, a $gamma$-ray beam line of 10MeV order was proposed recently. The beam line is expected to generate $gamma$-ray with maximum energy of 22MeV by backward Compton scattering between CO$_2$ laser and electron in the
3.5GeV storage ring of future Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility. The flux of non-collimated $gamma$-ray can be 10$^9$ $sim$ 10$^{10}$s$^{-1}$ if a commercial CO$_2$ laser of 100W order output power is employed and injected with optimized settings.
We propose a novel femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (FSRS) technique that combines entangled photons with interference detection to select matter pathways and enhance the resolution. Following photo excitation by an actinic pump, the measure
ment uses a pair of broadband entangled photons, one (signal) interacts with the molecule together with a third narrowband pulse induces the Raman process. The other (idler) photon provides a reference for the coincidence measurement. This interferometric photon-coincidence counting detection allows to separately measure Raman gain and loss signals, which is not possible with conventional probe transmission detection. Entangled photons further provide a unique temporal and spectral detection window that can better resolve fast excited state dynamics compared to classical and correlated disentangled states of light.
A realization of the force-induced remnant magnetization spectroscopy (FIRMS) technique of specific biomolecular binding is presented where detection is accomplished with wide-field optical and diamond-based magnetometry using an ensemble of nitrogen
-vacancy (NV) color centers. The technique may be adapted for massively parallel screening of arrays of nanoscale samples.
